Steven comes from a family of coffee producing pioneers, and in 2010 he joined their ranks, going all in on the family specialty coffee operation. Since then the family has focused on keeping production practices simple, with high attention to detail to attain the highest quality possible. Their coffee processing was further advanced in 2011 when Steven and his father started their own Micromill. Named after Steven's grandfather, the Don Sabino Micromill allowed the family to streamline the consistency of their natural processes, honing in on the ideal drying times and practices using raised beds for optimum air flow. You can taste the meticulous nature that this coffee is processed with, as well as the familial experience and knowledge that resulted in it. We are excited to share this shining example of how clean and dynamic natural processed coffees can be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExperience\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSweet, sparkly, with a round creamy finish, the Steven Vargas is deliciously balanced natural process coffee.

The Central Valley has a distinct weather pattern of wet and dry seasons, making it the ideal place for producers to grow coffee with both quality and consistency.

To ensure even drying, the cherries are rotated throughout the day while under direct sunlight, and covered with plastic at night to protect them from too much additional moisture. Once the cherries reach their desired humidity, they are sorted by size, and then the dried fruit shelling is hulled off to prepare the coffee for export. Natural processed coffees are loved for their fruit-forward flavors that are easily recognizable and approachable.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cat \u0026 Cloud","offers":[{"title":"10oz \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":53769827647802,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-10oz-WB","price":17.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10oz \/ Drip","offer_id":53769827680570,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-10oz-DRP","price":17.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10oz \/ French Press","offer_id":53769827713338,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-10oz-FP","price":17.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10oz \/ Espresso","offer_id":53769827746106,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-10oz-ES","price":17.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12oz \/ Whole Bean - Menottis","offer_id":53769827778874,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-12oz-WB-MENOTTIS","price":18.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Kilo (2.2lb) \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":53769827811642,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-KILO-WB","price":57.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Kilo (2.2lb) \/ Drip","offer_id":53769827844410,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-KILO-DRP","price":57.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Kilo (2.2lb) \/ French Press","offer_id":53769827877178,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-KILO-FP","price":57.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Kilo (2.2lb) \/ Espresso","offer_id":53769827909946,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-KILO-ES","price":57.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":53769827942714,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-5lb-WB","price":130.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb \/ Drip","offer_id":53769827975482,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-5lb-DRP","price":130.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb \/ French Press","offer_id":53769828008250,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-5lb-FP","price":130.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb \/ Espresso","offer_id":53769828041018,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-5lb-ES","price":130.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb \/ Whole Bean - Menottis","offer_id":53769828073786,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-5lb-WB-MENOTTIS","price":130.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sample \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":53769828106554,"sku":"CFE-CRI-STE-VAR-2026-100g-WB","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1850\/7439\/files\/CRI_STE_VAR_2026_WHITE.png?v=1784582457","url":"https:\/\/wholesale.catandcloud.com\/products\/costa-rica-steven-vargas-1","provider":"Cat \u0026 Cloud Wholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
